Bug Description
I don't know if I might have done something wrong, but the nvidia-173 drivers stopped working on this system in the last two kernel upgrades. I removed all nvidia packages and re-installed them to verify that everything is working fine with dkms. Re-installation looks fine but there are still problems when X tries to start the drivers.
